SonicWall Firewall? yes or no?

Ok, as most of you know I just got a new server.. so I am really thinking about now is what firewall should I get..
My eye is caught on this: Sonicwall Tele3 TZ Firewall

But as I never set up a network or managed a server before I was wondering you're input.
I'm using a Windows Server 2003 platform if that makes any
diff.
I also have 3 other computers which I am networking with. 2 running
Windows XP Pro, and the other Windows Media Center 2005. I may set up
a wireless network from that to my laptop.
So what firewall?

Yeah for sure, so I really don't need any hardware firewalls. Ok,
I did like that Wireless-G VPN Router with RangeBooster WRV200!
It looks sexy as hell. I hate doin' port forwarding though. rofl,
it's cool though. Thanks for the help. I'll let you guys test my network
when I am done..
